FRA 2020 report, Greenland

FAO has been monitoring the world's forests at 5 to 10 year intervals since 1946. The Global Forest Resources Assessments (FRA) are now produced every five years in an attempt to provide a consistent approach todescribing the world's forests and how they are changing. The FRA is a country-driven process and the assessments are based on reports prepared by officially nominated National Correspondents. If a report is notavailable, the FRA Secretariat prepares a desk study using earlier reports, existing information and/or remote sensing based analysis.
This document was generated automatically using the report made available as a contribution to the FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment 2020, and submitted to FAO as an official government document. Thecontent and the views expressed in this report are the responsibility of the entity submitting the report to FAO. FAO cannot be held responsible for any use made of the information contained in this document.

CommentsIn the interior Greenland between 60º10’N and 61º20’N minor areas in the bottom of climatically protected valleys are covered by a natural forest of Betula pubescens with a low copse-like underforest of Salix glauca . Occasional it is mixed withSorbus groenlandica . The tallest birch trees reach just above 10 metres in the interior behind Nanortalik (60º17’N). Further north they do not exceed 7 metres. The total forest area reaching above 5 metres is below 200 ha. Furthermore, a few smallplantations with conifers have been established at the fiords Tasermiut and Tunulliarfik in South Greenland. The most successful species are Larix siberica, Pinus contorta, P. silvestris, and Picea sp. The tallest trees reach about 7 metres, and seemto be resistant to the harsh winter climate. The total area is less than 20 ha.
There are larger areas which fulfill the criteria for being Other wooded land. It is areas with dense copse vegetation of 0.5-4 metres height. By far the most common species in the copse is Salix glauca , in the southernmost part of the country oftenaccompanied by Betula pubescens and single specimens of Sorbus groenlandica . In West Greenland between 61ºN and 66ºN Alnuscrispa is the only accompanying species. It may have 7-8 metres long, down-bended trunks which, however,hardly raise more than 2-3 metres above ground. North of the polar circle only Salix glauca may reach above 0.5 metre. The willow copses are best developed on south facing slopes and on moist ground in the bottom of low-land valleys, but thereis much variation in these areas. An estimate of their total area is subject to a large uncertainty and needs more definite surveys. Assuming that not more than 0.1 % of the ice-free land between 60ºN and 68ºN along the west coast of Greenland iscovered with these vegetation types, their area is less than 7500 ha, but this figure may prove to be erroneous.
